a Social Pointer.

A London dispatch of January 23d
says: Four hundred Socialists attended
services in Battersea Church to-day.
Canon Clarke was escorted to the
church by policemen. In his sermon he
defended himself against the attacks OF
the Socialists, After the service a So
cialist named Burns made a speech out
side the church in which he condemned
in strong terms the stand taken by Can
on Clarke against Socialism. He was
interrupted by the clergyman himself,
who threatened to throw him in a horse
trough. Canon Clark then retired amid
the jeers of the crowd. Burns mention
of the Queen and royal family was the
signal for Kisses.

Decorating Nursery Walls.

An ingenious way of decorating nursery
walls and which gave eminent satisfaction to
the children was devised by a thoughtful
mother. She made panels of unbleached cot
ton yard long by eighteen inches in width
and mounted them upon tailor's paper, finish
ing them upon round sticks at either end. On
these panels she pasted colored pictures, or
prints which she painted, and bordered the
panels with gold paper. These were hung up
about the room and changed from time to
time. Whenever it was possible verses or
descriptive texts were appended. The
children were devoted to their panels and
often asked for a special selection to be hung.
AS there was a goodly number of these deco
rations, the changes could be made as fire.

The Fault Is Their Own.

The boy or the girl, of ordinary health,
who under ordinary conditions pursues
the course of study in the schools, should
graduate with a physical constitution
sound and vigorous. If they do not. the
fault is rather their own, or that of their
parents, than OF the school. The high
schools Of the United States demand only
seven and one-quarter hours work day:
the Prussian gymnasiums require more
than. nine, and the classical schools of
Denmark more than eleven It is not
overwork in school, but overwork on the
piano, and overwork or everyday in soci-
ETY., which are the prevalent evils.-Frank

For Every summer Hotel.

All the hotels have reading rooms, s"
which contain few ragged and stained
newspapers, a few dirty spittOons and q
few cane-buttoned chairs. But one look
into them is usually enough for anybody
who cares to read. What we are speak
ing OF is a really cosy room, like that of a
good club, with the best American and
foreign periodicals, plenty of new books
and decent and orderly writing arrange
ments, and wood fire in an old-fashioned
fireplace, clean floor, and deliverance
from the brass band. Such room in a
summer hotel is really a civilizing agency,
but, as we have remarked, we only know
of two which have such a thing, or in
which it was probably ever thought Of

types made an ugly blunder in "a

ton Of the word property for pros
perity, destroys the writer's mean
ing in the sentence, which, as prin-
ted, reads "The decrease in the
revenues of the county would be
temporary, as the property prosper
ityl of Annapolis must eventually
inure to the advantage of the terri
tory which surrounds her." 1t is
upon the prosperity of Annapolis
that depends upon the prosperity Of
the county, as Baltimore county is
